Governing Body of Jehovah's Witnesses launches worldwide campaign againt Russia

by jwleaks in

jehovah's witnesses mobilize global response to threat of ban in russia.

march 21, 2017. https://www.jw.org/en/news/releases/by-region/russia/jw-mobilize-global-response-to-threat-of-ban/.

new york—threatened with an imminent ban on their worship in russia, jehovah’s witnesses are responding with a direct appeal to kremlin and supreme court officials for relief through a global letter-writing campaign.

I am sure that the Russians remember this at the height of the cold war:

Observers everywhere will be interested to learn that God's Word foretells a coming all-out attack by the Soviet planners against the servants of Jehovah. (Dan. 11: 44, 45) This aggression by the Communist world-grabbers constitutes grounds for Almighty God's predicted destruction of international communism, "and there will be no helper for him." Designers of the Soviet master plan will learn the hard way: "Many are the plans in the heart of a man, but the counsel of Jehovah 'is what will stand."-Prov.19:21.

Do You Know Any JWs That Were Wealthy AFTER They Became Witnesses?

by minimus in

friends

the only witnesses i knew that had money were those that either had family businesses or had money before they got into the religion.

I have known some well off thru hard work, they were not very spiritual; mostly fringe publishers.

Some others have become wealthy for a short time thru scams and some of them landed in jail eventually.

these douche bags left a memorial invitation in my door today, after i have already told them point blank, "do not come to this property ever again," which was months after my trespassing letter.. how dumb can people possibly be?

is there such a thing as an iq below zero?.

so i want to send a 2nd letter with the tract ripped up inside, so i will have a 2nd receipt showing another attempt to get them to leave me alone.. how do i know which hall's territory i am in?

Hecce

This problem is very common and the Branch gets involved quite often. It is very difficult to keep a local control of the situation and there will be publishers that will bypass the warning and knock at the marked doors. I saw a case where the householder went beyond what normally happens and had his attorney send a letter to the Branch. The reaction was swift and at the end of the day it was discovered that the Spanish friends were not aware of the situation and they kept knocking at his door. They were calling on this person, even when it was not part of the Spanish Census.

here is a link to the cease & desist letter

http://www.jehovahs-witness.net/jw/friends/153587/1/Cease-Desist-letter#.U4y7tSjijEg

I think the address to the wt needs updating to upstate NY?

This letter was the ONLY thing to keep them away from my house. Now, they finally got the hint. The letter really does go to NY and the elders get a letter from headquarters but right on their letter they suggest going back in a years time to see if the householder might have had a change of heart. A friend decided to send one every year with a Christmas card!

Don't bother trying to send on to the local kh as most do not have mailboxes and it will just be returned to you. If you decide to send to an elder send it certified mail.

I have given this out many times but darn if I didn't save it somewhere so I have to keep retyping it, so here it is. I have sent the letter to the local kh & NY and told my jw to keep them away and still the persist. The wt considers the letter good for only one year. Many kh's do not have mailboxes so if you attempt to sent locally it will be returned to you.

Believe me, the Branch jumps real quickly on this. They don't want legal consequences. They will locate the right congregation in no time.

I speak from personal experience.

Walmart settles JW religious discrimination lawsuit

by darkspilver in

jw
friends

pennrecord, monday 20 march 2017. in his lawsuit, pressley claimed a wal-mart store manager remarked to him: “you don’t have to go to those meetings.

you can be spiritual here,”.

pressley then claimed a store manager gave him an ultimatum to either stop attending his meetings or be fired.. wal-mart and ex-assistant manager who claimed religious discrimination settle lawsuit.

Hecce

I think that he was right in his complaint, the only item in favor of Walmart will be whether he was fired or quit. Even if he quit, he could show that it was the result of the changes to his work schedule.

The law is on his side.
